Welcome Connor - nice vehicles

Hope you can get a crew together for some runs.

We do the odd road trip up your way...

Thanks - keep me posted if you guys do a trip this way! 

Hopefully there are people keen on a run or two. If anyone wants to do a get together send me a message and we can try organise something. ?

Haha, sorry I don't think I will!

Sweet sounds like there are a few locals here - maybe we should try organise a lil' meet up one Sunday sometime.

Is the E36 out of Waikanae  , ex 1996 M3 rego?

I'm not sure to be honest. It is a '96 NZ New if that helps? Had a couple personalised plates through its life.

"nice pair!"

Welcome aboard.  Loving that technoviolet M3.  Bet your lab likes riding in them both, too.

Cheers, the colour really is amazing in the sun. 

Can't say she is allowed in either of them!

Long time lurker here but I thought I should finally post something and introduce myself & my cars properly.

2005 E63 650i with an SMG - I know this may be contentious but it really is a hell of a lot of fun to drive (once you get the knack to it) and actually makes it more than just a comfortable barge cruiser. 

1996 E36 M3 Evo with alloy doors - this is/was my dream car. It has everything I wanted in an M3 and the colour is truly wicked in the sun.

I'm definitely interested in seeing if there is much of a euro scene here in Taranaki, or anywhere!

Sorry for the amateur photos! (And the weeds..)

Cheers,

Connor

I could be wrong but if/when replacement was needed you could always put in "standard" M6 brakes, right? 

After a set of style 167 rims, with or without tyres.

Cheers

You have too many boxes. You will be waiting a long time bro.

Fair comment, haha.

In defence: I don't think there are all that many boxes though, 3.2, lower KMs OR a service history isn't a huge ask in my eyes, haha. I think those are standard  boxes for most people. :p I'm not after a cheap car and I am willing to pay well for the one that ticks these said boxes.

Someone sell me one that ticks my boxes already.. haha.

Haha, fair enough, they are getting a few and far between - I don't see them being E46\E92 prices though..

I'm really after the 3.2, sorry.

@M3AN when I looked at it earlier this year it was for sale for $20k. I don't know why this dealer thinks they can flick it for $10k. Maybe they know something I don't..

Seen both, I almost purcahsed the SMG one when it was for sale for 20k earlier in the year. Decided against the gearbox.

I'm not keen on swapped engines etc. 

Thanks though!

Bump.

I'm after a change of rims for my 650i.

What do people have out there that will fit?

I'm thinking something along the lines of some M5 or M6 wheels.

I threw up a photo of the current wheels.

Cheers!

Does anybody want to buy a 2006 650i so I can go buy this? Lol

Still looking.

Trademe would be your best bet 

I've been searching TradeMe for awhile now. They are either convertible or US spec. Oh and LHD.. lol. 

Howdy,

I'm on the hunt for an E36 M3 in blue, yellow or white preferably. But will consider other colour combinations.

Ideally looking for a '96+, 3.2L Euro spec and "low" milage.. which isn't critical based on the cars age! Service history is a must though.

Let me see whats out there!

Hello! It's been a long time since I have posted anything on this forum.

I thought I'd post my TradeMe listing here to see if anyone is interested in a 318ti as a run about.

All details are in the listing. 

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=1137990896&ed=true

To keep it within the rules - Buy now is $3750 but the auction start is $2,500 with no reserve & the car is located in New Plymouth.

If this is also more suited to TradeMe Discussions could you please move it?

Thanks!

He has said sorry about the pictures and is trying to rectify the issue. Not everyone is tech savy.

Poor guy!

^ But house prices more often than not go up. Cars, not so much. Knowing that makes it easier to sleep in my house than my car (among other more practical reasons..).

Unsure how any of this relates to the Mercedes for sale so, glws.

I finally found a car.

Thanks to everyone who contacted me with regards to their cars.

No more walking - Woo!

PMed you King Arthur.
